Just FYI I won't put anybody on the big board until they at least have an offer and crystal ball to us. So if you know let me know otherwise Ill look it up. MaryAnn posted a tweet from 4* DT Coynis Miller showing he had interest in us but we haven't even given an offer to him so he'll stay off the board until then. And certainly if you see an update from anybody that's on the board let me know.

Fields was downgraded to a 33% by the services but future Gator RB Iverson Clement was recruiting him hard at camp and said he;s 88% :)

The also rans right now are:
Rafiti Ghirmai 4* OT
Kwantel Raines, a 4-star safety
Israel Mukuamu, a 3-star safety
Coynis Miller 4* DT (DT YAY!)
Corral 5* QB

We nay also have a chance at the #1 WR in the state Mark Pope who is 100% to UM but we may have a chance.

I'll remain cautiously optimistic that we can land a couple of these 5* big fish, but so far in two years Mac's biggest coup was landing a kicker. o_O

Cleveland was a big get too. But yeah, so far no real big fish since his shared class with Muschamp

Started a new OP about this, but thought I'd add it to this thread...

5* QB Corral decommitted from uscw. bama, UF and ugaly listed as his new top interests. I'm not going to get into the "who would you rather have?" debate. I just want to see Mac bring in a big time QB that will breathe life into our offense.

Update on Corral. The guys at Gators Breakdown think Corral has a bad rep and Mac won't touch him. They say if Fields fall through 4* Devin Leary who is a NC State commit has expressed interest in UF and might be the plan B guy. They also said Devin may get a fifth star.

This is surprising. It almost sounds like Mac does his homework on recruits. To hear many on GC, I thought he just randomly pursues prospects on a whim.

Yep I think it's helpful and that's why I'm trying to get it stickied and I'll keep it updated as people share updates. That way if someone posts that Joe Scchmo scheduled an official visit or whatever we know if the guy was even on the board to begin with or whatever. It puts recruiting in perspective for guys like me that don't follow to closely.

I can sticky it in the recruiting forum. Problem is that nobody really visits that.

Yeah that's what I figured. Just so you know the purpose of the thread is to keep a list of recruits that are actually in play i.e they at least have a Crystal ball to us. So just updates. It's not really meant to be a discussion thread. And I'll try to keep track of numbers and put latest updates in red.

I did some # crunching. The last four years the average number of recruits for the top 5 rankings has been 25.7. Only 3 out of 20 had < 24. Rivals only uses your top 20 recruits but generally if you pull 30 your top 20 are gonna be better than if you only pull 20. So based on that I estimate a final ranking between 6-10.

I thought that was the other dungeon.

Seriously never understood that forum.

I will take it. From what I've seen, he looks good.

Some won't like him because he isn't one of those big tall 6'4" QBs with a cannon like the uber effective Jeff Driskel, Austin Appleby or Felipe Franks.
